Christmas Countdown - 2015

[Edge612]

Good Monday morning, my Christmas friends!

It's been a wet weekend, but not as wet as some of you had to endure. I hope no one had a serious issues from the rain.

Jacob's band had an outdoor gig Saturday morning. They played it in the misting rain under a tent, and there was a crowd of folks there! The event was called "greenfest", with different exhibitions demonstrating recycling and renewable energy ideas. It was a good show!

Our church's Homecoming was yesterday. A pastor I haven't seen in 12 years was the guest speaker. It was good to see him and his family again. His kids are J & E's age, and we both couldn't believe how big they've gotten LOL. After service, we had lunch in the social hall. That was the best food ever!

That afternoon, I checked the StealthCam for signs of deer at the hunting plot. I saw a doe and a few "yearlings", but no bucks yet. The seeds I planted last week are already sprouting, so it should be a good season.

The sun's coming out tomorrow!! I hope y'all have a great day!

Have a great Monday Brad. When Jacob becomes rich and famous will he share some of his fortunes with you?

Over the weekend we went to an Antique shop and Snow-in-Texas and I spotted a vintage Christmas ornament identical to the one he had as a child. He got a little emotional because that ornament always reminded him of his dad who has passed away. It's nothing fancy but it's very special! We bought it right away! He still has the original one but it got a crack in it but we still hang it on the tree every year. Some of you already saw it on facebook but when one of us gets a chance we will post pictures here for the rest of you to see!

I hope everyone had a nice weekend!

Happy Monday...

Good Morning, MMC!

I'm waking up feeling a little under the weather this morning, so I'm just praying that I can take good care of myself today and stop it from turning into a full blown sick. The weather change always gets me, especially when I went out running in it I guess!

Today's focus is on taking good care of myself. Mondays are tough as it is! Nobody needs them to be harder than they are!

Hope you all have a wonderful day today. Perhaps we will see the sun for the first time in over a week! I'm sure I'll be blinded by it and have to put my glasses on!

Hope you are feeling better!

Good morning everyone, Happy Monday!
Another rough night, I'm going to need a lot of coffee today. Typical day of errands and chores. My husband and I also need to go back to the court office, I decided I want to ask the Small Claims Court Clerk if we can serve Molly's surgeon with a subpoena. I think I forgot to mention our court date is December 17th. Not happy about it being the week before Christmas but I didn't have a choice. I'm also going to file a complaint with the New York State Office of Professional Discipline. This has nothing to do with the small claims case. They are the licensing body of veterinarians. If I file a complaint they are required to launch an investigation. So I'll be working on that today as well. Like I said, it may be hard for me to prove wrongdoing but I'm going to try my best. At least I'll know I did all that I could have possibly done and then we can finally put this all behind us.
That's about it for me. I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and has a great week ahead!

Have a good Monday HMG! Good luck with filing the complaint..

Good Morning, Fellow Milestone Approachers.

Indeed, you can rest assured our next one is drawing very near -- and it's a BIG one!
More about that, presently.

First, the daily data readings:
Days to the Season: 39
Days to Christmas Day: 81

And would you believe.......the DAY AFTER TOMORROW will see us enter the HOME STRETCH to Christmas Season 2015, having reached the 90 percent mark.
(Merciful Mistletoe, My Merry Mates!)


A break in the rain yesterday?
Well, not really. We only had a light sprinkle in the late afternoon but it was darkish, overcast, damp and oppressive all day. Could be a repeat today but Tuesday is supposed to see an end to this. (I'll believe it when I see it.)
We are at 58 soaked degrees here currently, under leaden skies.


Have a Marvelous Monday, Folks
(I will. BOTH of my 2 favorite NFL teams, the Packers and the Panthers, won yesterday and they are now both 4-0!)

Thanks Crown!

Good morning MMC! Happy Monday! Trying to get caught up on here, but I think I'm getting more behinder!!
I hope everyone had a great weekend & a good start to your new week!!

Happy Monday Holiday...have a great day! I am trying to catch up too!

Yeah, Mondays never really bother me, either. Of course, I'm lucky; I like my job. LOL Enjoy your day!
And yes, MMC is hard to beat!

Have a great day Brad!! Happy Monday!

Just seen the TV advert for True Movies TV channel announcing their switch to True Christmas on October 09th!!!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas ....

Don't you love seeing Christmas adverts in October??? I just saw my first Christmas commercial on TV this morning. They were advertising to submit holiday recipes to some company (didn't catch the name). It made me a bit giddy!!!

Good Monday morning MMC. We currently have 49 degrees under mostly cloudy skies in the suburbs of NY. Our first full week of October is here. Let's enjoy them because in January and February we will wish we were back at this point. The anticipation is building. I won't even rush my Monday. I'm just enjoying the fact that we are getting so close to the Christmas season yet haven't even started it yet so we have time still to think about everything we want to do during it.
My busy week last week is over but there will be some "leftovers" if you will. Should keep me busy enough this week without being too crazy. Mondays are always a little tough but not terrible. Monday just has a bad reputation I think. I'm going to try to study a bit after work and then relax after that. Hopefully I won't feel too wiped out from Monday when I get home.
Hope everyone has a great Monday. I've only been back a week but it really does feel like "home." Love having this place to come to every day. It's very comforting.

Have a great Monday Edge!!

Sorry you had another rough night! Continued hugs, thoughts & prayers being sent your way. I hope everything goes very well for you with your claim so you can find some peace & put this all behind you. Sorry you are having to go through this!

The sun's coming out tomorrow!! I hope y'all have a great day!

Sounds like you had a good weekend!! Have a great week!

Good morning MMC! Happy Monday! Trying to get caught up on here, but I think I'm getting more behinder!!
I hope everyone had a great weekend & a good start to your new week!!

I stay "behinder" on here all the time! It use to be easier to stay caught up but it seems that I just "post and run" lately. I do think about you all even if I don't catch ALL of the post!!!
